Available on September 8, 2011, at a Recommended Retail Price of 1,800 yen (including tax)

Tokyo, Aug 8, 2011- Sony Computer Entertainment Japan (SCEJ), a division of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. responsible for business operation in Japan, today announced that it will release a HDMI Cable (2.0m) for PlayStation 3 (PS3) on September 8, 2011, at a recommended retail price (RRP) of 1,800 yen (including tax).

This High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) cable supports High-Speed standard, which enables fast transmission of large capacity signals such as high definition images as well as those data with increased color depths. This HDMI also adopts high standard cable and highly reliable and durable 24K gold-plated connectors, most appropriate for fast transmission of digital AV data.

By connecting PS3 and full HD supported TV/Display through this HDMI cable, users can not only enjoy 1080p high definition images and realistic digital sound but also a variety of 3D content including stereoscopic 3D games and Blue-ray 3D content *1 if they have 3D supported TV/Displays.

Along with HDMI cable (3.0m) already available on shelves, this HDMI cable (2.0m) will further broaden the peripheral line-ups for the PS3 system, allowing users to choose the most appropriate options for their home environment.

SCEJ will continue to further expand the PS3 platform along with exciting line-ups of software titles and peripherals and create a new world of computer entertainment that is only possible on PS3.

Lol, that would be so funny if sony was all like "ah mah gawd our new HDMI cable is best HDMI cable hurr hurr" but in actual state it'll be like this, "30$ HDMI Sony cable-- 2$ no name brand cable, yes!"

Sony is overpricing their stuff like Monster does... idk how they come up with this kind of logic of making us pay for a HDMI cable (even still, it's just some HDMI cable with their name on it... nothing special about the damn thing lol)

PS: and who the heck uses a damn 3meter cable ?? like seriously.. A normal human being would have it hooked up right next to each other or near each other.. such fail logic $ony..

you watch 1 month after launch they will have an "optional" FW update that makes it so the PS3 will only function with THEIR HDMI cables

do yourself a favor and don't get one feeding the sue happy monster is not necessarily a good thing, look at there past in this gen alone, taking away other OS, removing PS2 BC, PSN getting hacked after they knew that every thing was reversed and documented and STILL did nothing to protect its consumers, sued the crap out of talented people being whiny cry babies and all this great anti consumer stuff they have been pulling this gen and you want to feed the monster more $$$ so they can keep screwing the consumer?
